Radicale

1. What is Radicale?

Radicale is a CalDAV and CardDAV server. It allows synchronization and sharing of calendar and contact data. To use the application, a supported client application is needed. Radicale can be accessed by any user with a FreedomBox login.

2. Why running Radicale?

Using Radicale, you can get rid of centralized services like Google Calendar or Apple Calendar (iCloud) mining your events and social connections.

3. How to setup Radicale?

3.1. FreedomBox

First, the Radicale server needs to be activated on your box. Then the mobile and computer clients need to be configured.

  • From your FreedomBox interface, go to "Calendar and Addressbook (Radicale)" page and install the application. After the installation is complete, make sure the application is marked "enabled" in the FreedomBox interface. Enabling the application launches the Radicale server CalDAV.

  • Now open your clients to create new calendar and address books that will use your FreedomBox and Radicale server. Remember, your clients must be CalDAV and CardDAV compatible. The Radicale website provides tutorials to setup a large selection of clients.
